Darwin's Lost Paradise
This
well made docudramentary revolves around one of the world's most
influential scientists, Sir Charles Darwin who is once again brought to
life in this two part series.
Even though some of what Darwin theorised
has been debunked by modern scientists, his basis is still the founding
element of biology as we know it today. Not only was Darwin a scientist
but he was also an explorer and travelled the world for 5-years as he
encountered a whole new world of plants and animals that challenged the
very foundation of science.
The documentary is an insight into the
life of Charles Darwin and although it focuses on his understanding and
challenges to the world of Christianity in terms of evolution, it is
also quite amazing that this man was only 22-years of age when he
started his voyage to the new world.
The documentary also links Darwin
to modern science and how given what was known then, how he
developed his intricate theories that would change the world of biology
as we know it.
It's
quite an insightful documentary that works on many levels and even
though it may feel like a genre documentary, it can be watched and
enjoyed by most viewers and you don't need a university degree to enjoy
it! |
